Shared Workload Optimization

Summary: Introduces shared workload optimization (SWO), deriving a global execution plan across queries rather than optimizing them independently. A heuristic stochastic-knapsack formulation jointly optimizes shared scans and hash joins, yielding gains on TPC-W/TPC-H. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
